Jo Seong-hyeon looked at Song-lia swallowing saliva with a nervous face and bowed her head slightly.
“Excuse me.”
“Ah, hello.”
Song-Ria made eye contact with Jo Sung-Hyeon in a slightly trembling voice and answered.
“They aren’t weird. We also do music… .”
Jo Sung-hyeon was about to explain to Song-Ria, but Song-Ria suddenly nodded her head.
“I know. Sunghyun and Chaeyun… .”
Saying that, Song-Ria looked at Jo Sung-Hyeon and Chae-Yoon once.
Jo Sung-hyeon smiled comfortably at Song-Ria, who said that she knew him.
It was good to know.
It makes it so much easier to speak.
“I came here to say hello because I love gayageum performances.”
“It is an honour. Every time a video was uploaded, I watched it every day. I saw Chaeyun filming a CF at the zoo this time, and I also saw the last time she went to a water park.”
Having said that, Song-Ria put her hands together and took a step towards Seong-Hyeon Jo.
Jo Sung-hyun took a half step back without realizing it and smiled.
“Thank you for a good look.”
“I, thank you for listening to my performance. uh… If you have time, can you please sign me once?”
Song Lia said so and her eyes twinkled, and at that moment, Chae Yoon came out.
“I can do it perfectly.”
“really?”
At Chae-yoon’s answer, Song-lia is delighted.
Song Lia looked like she was going to go through her arms and take out a paper to be signed.
But, where is the performer who brings paper and pen to the performance?
She looked around, realizing that she had no paper and pen in her arms.
“If you go to our practice room, you should have paper and a pen… Are you busy?”
“No, I am not busy. I don’t have anything else to do… .”
The most important thing was the music.
Jo Seong-hyeon looked at Chae-yoon with that thought in mind.
Chae-yoon had already fallen for the practice room.
As if to go quickly, the child grabs Jo Sung-hyun’s hand.
“let’s go. practice room.”
Chaeyoung said.
Seong-hyeon finally smiled and nodded.
“Then shall we go to the practice room?”
“Thank you so much for your time.”
“no. We are even more grateful for hearing good performances. If possible, in the practice room… Could you play one more song? It sounds really good.”
“I can play not just one song, but ten songs as well.”
Saying that, Song-lia hurried her steps.
Jo Sung-hyun followed in the footsteps of Song-lia.
practice room.
Originally, this place would be open only to employees working in the folk village.
Fortunately, no one stopped them.
It was partly because Song Lia was with them, and because there were more people who recognized Jo Seong-hyeon and Chae-yoon than expected, there was no need to verify their identity.
The practice room was larger than expected.
It’s not a space that Song-Ria uses alone, but when bands practice, they have to practice together here, so maybe it’s not natural.
Seong-hyeon looked around slowly.
“It is well maintained.”
“It’s where I write every day. You have to take good care of it.”
Saying that, Song Lia rushed around looking for paper and a pen.
Eventually, she came from somewhere with a paper and pen, and handed it to Jo Seong-hyeon and Chae-yoon.
“please… !”
Song-Ria spoke in a cheerful voice, and Jo Sung-Hyeon placed a piece of paper on the music stand right next to her and signed it.
Next, it’s Chae-yoon’s turn.
Originally, Chae-yoon did not have an autograph, but it was recently created.
Because there are so many fans requesting autographs.
The child neatly wrote the name Cho Chae-yoon and drew a note on each side.
That was Chae-yoon’s signature, and the child was quite satisfied.
While Chae Yoon was signing autographs, Jo Seong-hyeon neatly cleaned up her slightly messy hair and put her hair ornaments back on.
“Hey, maybe just one picture… .”
“Anytime possible.”
“I’ll take a picture. Give me your phone.”
Jang Hyun-ah takes the smartphone from Song-lia and takes a picture.
Han Ah-reum was filming the whole scene.
Belatedly, Song Ria also recognized Han Ah Reum and the camera and covered her mouth as if surprised.
“Ah, will I be on My Tube too?”
“I think the performance video will be uploaded, but if you don’t want what you’re filming right now, I’ll edit it appropriately.”
Ah-reum Han answered Song-Ria, and Song-Ria shook her head.
“Oh, no. I was just curious so I asked. It’s okay with me.”
Saying that, Song Lia moves her hand and waves her hand as if greeting the camera.
Then, Chae-yoon approached Song-lia and opened her mouth.
“sister.”
“OMG… .”
As soon as Chae-yoon called her sister, Song-lia looked at the child with a shocked expression.
With pure eyes, Chae-yoon continues.
“play… I want to listen.”
“Oh, right. play.”
Song-Ria smiled and sat down on one side of the practice room and played the gayageum.
Jo Seong-hyeon and Chae-yoon took her seat, and as soon as she sat down, they approached and looked at the gayageum.
As it was a gayageum with 25 strings, it was quite large.
“You have to tune this every time you do it, but it came right after a performance, so I’ll skip tuning and start with the performance.”
“How do you coordinate?”
It would take a lot of time to tune all 25 strings, and I was curious about how to do it, so Jo Sung-hyun asked.
Song Lia opened the end of the gayageum without a big deal.
Jo Seong-hyeon and Chae-yoon opened their eyes wide as they saw the end of the gayageum open.
“Wow, here it is open.”
“yes. Open this up and tune in. The tuning method is similar to that of a violin… Instead, the violin only needs to tune four strings, but we have to tune 25, so it takes a little more time.”
“It won’t take a little longer, it will take a long time, right?”
“That’s why I spend the longest time preparing for a performance.”
Song-lia said that and burst into laughter.
With the gayageum in front of her, she looked at Jo Seong-hyeon and Chae-yoon in turn.
“Which song would you like to hear?”
“I think you can just do any song. Because we don’t know much about gayageum playing. I have no idea what kind of song I can play.”
“I can play all of them, but once I do, I’ll play whatever comes to mind.”
Song Lia put her hand on the gayageum string without much thought.
Gayageum playing starts right away.
ding. tiling. Tiing.
Thanks to Jo Seong-hyeon and Chae-yoon, I was able to hear the gayageum playing right in front of me.
Chae-yoon looked at the gayageum with interesting eyes.
She doesn’t even make eye contact with Song-Ria, who is playing, just staring at her hands.
Song-Ria’s hand moved leisurely.
Basically, the gayageum is played without the strength of the hands, so there was a strange elegance.
The song lasted for several minutes, and the performance of those minutes was enough to give new inspiration to Jo Sung-hyun and Chae-yoon.
And, it was clear that Chae Yoon-i was much more inspired than Cho Seong-hyeon.
As soon as Song Lia finished playing, the child carefully opened her mouth.
“I… sister.”
“yes?”
“Can I try?”
With longing eyes, Chae-yoon asks.
In response to her question, Song-Ria immediately nodded her head.
“yes! Of course not.”
Song Lia got up from her seat and allowed Chae Yoon to sit in front of the gayageum.
Chaeyoon sat down in front of the gayageum and gently stroked the strings.
There are not many musical instruments that children have touched.
At least a piano and a violin.
The violin was not yet completely familiar with the situation.
Because it is a gayageum that resembles a piano and at the same time resembles a violin.
Jo Sung-hyun couldn’t even predict what Chae-yoon would look like.
The child carefully plucked the string.
ding.
A low-pitched roaring sound is laid down.
Chaeyun flinched as if the sound was louder than expected, and stopped the sound by lightly pressing the string with her hand.
“The original sound is a little loud.”
As Song Lia said that, she gently grabbed Chaeyoon’s hand as if it was okay and showed her her posture.
Of course, no matter how much position information was given, children’s hands and adults’ hands could not be the same size, so there were many inconveniences.
Even for parts that an adult could easily play, the child had to move his arms hard to play it.
While whining, Chae-yoon heard an explanation about how to play the gayageum, and tried it once.
Tiing. Tee ing.
The child was a little startled when he heard the sound each time the strings were plucked, and then quickly smiled as if he had gotten used to it.
and soon.
Tiing. Tee ing. ding.
Chaeyun’s gayageum performance started.
“… Is this the first time Chaeyoon is playing gayageum?”
“Yeah, it’s my first time… .”
Song-Ria turns her head and asks Jo Sung-Hyeon.
Jo Sung-hyun blinked his eyes and answered.
The child was clumsy, but nevertheless was producing a pleasant sound.
A strangely resonant performance continues.
“The principle is not difficult, so people who used to play similar instruments quickly get used to it. Doesn’t Chae-yoon only play the piano?”
“Okay. I only play the piano, but I’m also pretty good at gayageum.”
Jo Sung-hyun said with a smirk.
Of course, it wasn’t a skillful performance, but the performance that could be said to be attractive music to anyone who listened to it continued.
Song-Ria and Jo Sung-Hyeon couldn’t help but admire it.
Hyeon-ah Jang and Ah-reum Han, who were behind them, also shook their heads as they saw Chae-yoon.
The child sometimes showed some really absurd appearances, but now it is a look that can only surprise Cho Seong-hyeon, Jang Hyun-ah, and Han Ah-reum, who are watching Chae-yoon’s talent right next to her.
ding!
Chae-yoon made a mistake while playing, frowned and stopped.
The boy sighed and lifted his head.
“It is interesting.”
Chaeyoung smiled brightly.
Literally, it was a face that looked like it had found a fun toy.
Seeing such a child, Jo Sung-hyun could recall the time when he had just returned to the past.
In kindergarten, Chae-yoon was playing the piano.
I never learned to play the piano.
Perhaps it is natural for children to play gayageum, which they have not learned.
That Chae-yoon has an incredible talent.
Jo Sung-hyun felt it again.
